When recently using 'perf report --stat' it was not clear to me from the
output whether a particular statistics field (LOST_SAMPLES) was not
present, or just zero:
fomalhaut:~> perf report --stat
Aggregated stats:
TOTAL events: 495984
MMAP events: 85
COMM events: 3389
EXIT events: 1605
THROTTLE events: 2
UNTHROTTLE events: 2
FORK events: 3377
SAMPLE events: 472629
MMAP2 events: 14753
FINISHED_ROUND events: 139
THREAD_MAP events: 1
CPU_MAP events: 1
TIME_CONV events: 1
I had to check the output several times to ascertain that I'm not
misreading the output, that the field didn't change and that I didn't
misremember the name. In fact I had to look into the perf source to make
sure that zero fields are indeed not shown.
With the patch applied:
fomalhaut:~> perf report --stat

CPU_MAP events: 1
STAT_CONFIG events: 0
STAT events: 0
STAT_ROUND events: 0
EVENT_UPDATE events: 0
TIME_CONV events: 1

It's pretty clear at a glance that LOST_SAMPLES is present but zero.
The original output can still be gotten via:
fomalhaut:~> perf report --stat | grep -vw 0
Aggregated stats:
TOTAL events: 495984
MMAP events: 85
COMM events: 3389
EXIT events: 1605
THROTTLE events: 2
UNTHROTTLE events: 2

SAMPLE events: 472629
MMAP2 events: 14753
FINISHED_ROUND events: 139
THREAD_MAP events: 1
CPU_MAP events: 1
TIME_CONV events: 1
So I don't think there's any real loss in functionality.

This first happened with a gcc function, _cpp_lex_token, that has the
usual jumps:
│1159e6c: ↓ jne 115aa32 <_cpp_lex_token@@Base+0xf92>
I.e. jumps to a label inside that function (_cpp_lex_token), and those
works, but also this kind:
│1159e8b: ↓ jne c469be <cpp_named_operator2name@@Base+0xa72>
I.e. jumps to another function, outside _cpp_lex_token, which are not
being correctly handled generating as a side effect references to
ab->offset[] entries that are set to NULL, so to make this code more
robust, check that here.
A proper fix for will be put in place, looking at the function name
right after the '<' token and probably treating this like a 'call'
instruction.
For now just don't draw the arrow.

The jump arrow in above example is not correct. It should add the
width of IPC and Cycle.
With this patch, the result is:

Committer notes:
Please note that only from LBRv5 (according to Jiri) onwards, i.e. >=
Skylake is that we'll have the cycles counts in each branch record
entry, so to see the Cycles and IPC columns, and be able to test this
patch, one need a capable hardware.
While applying this I first tested it on a Broadwell class machine and
couldn't get those columns, will add code to the annotate browser to
warn the user about that, i.e. you have branch records, but no cycles,
use a more recent hardware to get the cycles and IPC columns.

Changing the way the annotation lines are allocated and adding
annotation_line__(new|delete) functions to deal with this.
Before the allocation schema was as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------
struct disasm_line | struct annotation_line | private space
-----------------------------------------------------------
Where the private space is used in TUI code to store computed
annotation data for events. The stdio code computes the data
on the fly.
The goal is to compute and store annotation line's data directly
in the struct annotation_line itself, so this patch changes the
line allocation schema as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------
privsize space | struct disasm_line | struct annotation_line
------------------------------------------------------------
Moving struct annotation_line to the end, because in following
changes we will move here the non-fixed length event's data.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

We currently update the 'next' variable only with a single step value.
But it's possible the 'adv' update is bigger than single 'step' value.
This would leave 'next' value under counted and force unnecessary
ui_progress__ops->update calls.
Calculate the amount of steps we need for 'adv' update and increase the
'next' with that amounts of steps.

The branch history code has a loop detection function. With this, we can
get the number of iterations by calculating the removed loops.
While it would be nice for knowing the average cycles of iterations.
This patch adds up the cycles in branch entries of removed loops and
save the result to the next branch entry (e.g. branch entry A).
Finally it will display the iteration number and average cycles at the
"from" of branch entry A.
For example:
perf record -g -j any,save_type ./div
perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio
--22.63%--main div.c:42 (RET CROSS_2M)
compute_flag div.c:28 (cycles:2 iter:173115 avg_cycles:2)
|
--10.73%--compute_flag div.c:27 (RET CROSS_2M)
rand rand.c:28 (cycles:1)
rand rand.c:28 (RET CROSS_2M)
__random random.c:298 (cycles:1)
__random random.c:297 (COND_BWD CROSS_2M)
